The world premiere of the new Mercedes-AMG GT Roadster* was the highlight of the Mercedes-Benz Media Night on the eve of the \u201cMondial de l\u2019Automobile 2016\u201d. The open-top two-seater will be available in two versions from market launch in February 2017. In the AMG GT Roadster* base model, the AMG 4.0-litre V8 biturbo produces 350 kW (476 hp). The even more dynamic and visually distinct Mercedes-AMG GT C Roadster* combines its peak output of 410 kW (557 hp) with highly exclusive equipment and appointments. Developed entirely in-house by the sports car and performance brand, the open-top two-seater marks an expansion of the successful GT family.

\u201cWith an output of 557 hp and maximum torque of 680 Nm, the AMG GT C Roadster is positioned between the AMG GT S and AMG GT R.
